I misread the last one as “Drugs as work, happy hours”.

My last job offered free beer after 4pm on fridays.

It was smart as fuck if you think about it. For the small price of a few crates of beer, you got 20+ people talking in their free time, and on the weekend, without additional pay. It was officially off-work but since most of your coworkers were there, there was a lot of work-related exchange going on.

That's pretty much every office in London before the pandemic. Some even had taps with draught ales.
